Randy Arozarena homered, George Kirby tossed 6 1/3 crisp innings and the Seattle Mariners shut out the punchless Pirates for the third straight game, winning 1-0 on Sunday as Pittsburgh wasted another strong start by All-Star Paul Skenes.

Up to the end of the third inning the ships of the Mariners and Pirates were running down on each other as quickly as their sails could take them. As they grew closer the bow chasers thundered out ranging shots that did little but anger Neptune.
